Reinking and Robert A von der Osten have successfully created an engaging textbook that allows students to sharpen their writing skills at their own pace.

Strategies for successful reading, planning and drafting your paper, revising and editing your paper, paragraphs, effective sentences, and diction, tone, and style are also tackled.
